Rabbit-Proof Fence

This is what I like to call a docu-film, a movie that feels like a documentary. The film tells the story of three half aboriginal, half white girls (Everlyn Sampi, Tianna Sansbury, Daisy, Laura Monaghan) fleeing a government camp meant to assimilate these half-and-half children to white Australian society. The camp was lead by Mr. Neville (Kenneth Branagh) who felt he was doing his duty by trying to breed the aboriginal out of the half-and-halfs. The girls arte trying to get back to their hometown by walking along the rabbit-proof fence, The longest fence in the world, because it will lead them to their village. This movie was also a disappointment to me because I had heard such great things about it but it still was like watching a documentary. It's hard to believe that the Australian government did this for some 40 odd years, and this film will really educate you real fast.
